Between Hell's Kitchen, Treasure Hunters, and BBAS- all this reality TV watching better win me $10,000! I have a new computer on credit that I need to pay off for chrissakes!

Plus- if I win the trip to Vegas to have a dinner cooked for me by the HK winning chef, I can invite all you guys and we can REALLY see how K-Grease (or Heather) rolls. If Virginia wins- I'll invite EdHill so he can see her boobies up close and personal!:D

My husband and I entered the Deal or No Deal thing once by text message, then we realized they charge $.99 for each one, and realized that given the number of people that enter that way they are actually MAKING money off of it, and that made me mad enough not to enter at all - even though I know now you can enter online for free. What a scam. Though, if I were to win of course I wouldn't care how scammy it was.

I do!
But I always enter online. I'm not paying 99 cents for that stuff.

Did you ever notice that the winners are usually from the middle of nowhere?

I always enter online too. The service charge thing IS ridiculous.

It's only 50 cents to vote for BB's America's choice - how kind of them!

Gotta love K-Grease - he gave us some real fun lingo to use this summer.
So do you think dinner will include some BLOODY RISOTTO!

Fuck yeah tink! I want BLOODY RISOTTO, Beef Wellintongton with sauce on it to make it looked like it's not undercooked, tortellini cooked by a fat-mouthed bitch, and donkey sweat in my sauce!:D

Here's another question I was thinking about last night while waiting to see if I won the money on Treasure Hunters. How do they announce a winner at the end of the show if the West Coast people aren't watching it at the same time as the EST and CST people? Do they give an additional prize or take the entries form the previous week to pick a winner? The online entry form gives the times that the contest is open as the actual viewing times in each time zone. I'm puzzled...

I've always wondered that, too, ZB. I just assumed that people were grouped by time zone, but then I was watching from the East Coast and saw that someone from the West Coast had won. WTF?

Last night it was someone from Florida (sadly, not me) - Was it the same for all you West Coasters?

No, they have seperate contests for at least East (and I asume Centrral since they're mostly on the same TV schedule is included) and West Coast. I'm sure that Mtn. time gets screwed, as always :)

that makes sense CT. I noticed that when I watch the winner is often from TX so I guess I'll just keep playing. Thanks!
